NY City Ballet’s Salonen ‘World Premiere’: Oh, Really?

The company recently announced that its spring 2010 season would include a “world premiere” with choreography by Peter Martins and a score by Esa-Pekka Salonen. As it turns out, said score is Salonen’s Violin Concerto, co-commissioned by NYCB but premiered last April by the L.A. Philharmonic at Disney Hall.
